The Baburnama : memoirs of Babur, prince and emperor
Thackston, Wheeler M.(ed.)
The Baburnama : memoirs of Babur, prince and emperor - London Random House 2002 - 554
Both an official chronicle and the highly personal memoir of the emperor Babur (1483–1530), The Baburnama presents a vivid and extraordinarily detailed picture of life in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India during the late-fifteenth and early-sixteenth centuries. Babur’s honest and intimate chronicle is the first autobiography in Islamic literature, written at a time when there was no historical precedent for a personal narrative—now in a sparkling new translation by Islamic scholar Wheeler Thackston.
